She has GOT to learn how to express anger in a more constructive way than <I>going to her boyfriend's job and bitching him out</I>.<BR/><BR/>Of course, I think that the managing partner should maybe kick Amazonia out, she IS disrupting business. That would be a good place to start, Amazonia wouldn't be so free to bitch him out at work, and he would have a safe place to go where she can't come.<BR/><BR/>Poor guy.

I wonder if the same reasons apply when the roles are reversed? I can tell you quite easily why a guy would stay with a girl that gave him little or no respect. But even -that- has its limits when it comes to, say, public humiliation and constant yelling; this I just don't understand. <BR/><BR/>My guess, from the limited information I could gather, is that this girl needs him as much as he -thinks- he needs this girl. Perhaps as a verbal punching bag, an ego boost, a way to exercise control, etc.. <BR/><BR/>He really, really needs to drop her and fast; but when he does, expect some backlash from "a woman scorned" (and very pissed off). That much is inevitable, but worlds better than what he's putting up with right now.
